Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 54,451,975, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 54,451,975 | |
| -1 | -54,451,975 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 54,451,975.
Example:
1 x 54,451,975 = 54,451,975
and
-1 x -54,451,975 = 54,451,975
Notice both answers equal 54,451,975
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 54,451,975 and divide it by 2:
54,451,975 ÷ 2 = 27,225,987.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 27,225,987.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 54,451,975 | |
| -1 | -54,451,975 |
Now, we try dividing 54,451,975 by 3:
54,451,975 ÷ 3 = 18,150,658.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,150,658.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 54,451,975 | |
| -1 | -54,451,975 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
54,451,975 ÷ 4 = 13,612,993.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,612,993.75 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 54,451,975 | |
| -1 | 54,451,975 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 37 | 43 | 185 | 215 | 925 | 1,075 | 1,369 | 1,591 | 6,845 | 7,955 | 34,225 | 39,775 | 50,653 | 58,867 | 253,265 | 294,335 | 1,266,325 | 1,471,675 | 2,178,079 | 10,890,395 | 54,451,975 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -37 | -43 | -185 | -215 | -925 | -1,075 | -1,369 | -1,591 | -6,845 | -7,955 | -34,225 | -39,775 | -50,653 | -58,867 | -253,265 | -294,335 | -1,266,325 | -1,471,675 | -2,178,079 | -10,890,395 | -54,451,975 |
